The lowdown
賽事前瞻
Argentina should walk a comfortable group, but in some ways they might prefer to be tested for fear of being undercooked ahead of a potential quarter-final withGermany.
阿根廷被分入了一個輕松的小組，不過從某種意義上說阿根廷人可能更愿意在小組賽中歷經考驗，因為他們擔心在四分之一決賽中遇到潛在對手德國時連續三屆被其淘汰出局。
While their Fantastic Four strikeforce of Angel di Maria, Sergio Aguero, Gonzalo Higuain and, of course, Lionel Messi will fancy their chances of running up a cricket score against a Bosnia-Herzegovina back five that includes no players of note apart from Stoke keeper Asmir Begovic, they should at least be asked some questions at the back.
阿根廷的鋒線球員讓人艷羨，迪馬利亞（Angel di Maria）、阿圭羅（Sergio Aguero）和伊瓜因（Gonzalo Higuain）足以撕開對手的防線。當然我們不能忘記梅西，他的能力能讓阿根廷隊打出板球比賽的比分，因為其面對的波黑五名后防球員中，除了斯托克城的門將貝戈維奇（Asmir Begovic）之外，其余的球員都默默無聞，這樣的后防線至少會受到阿根廷隊的一些挑戰。
A vampire-esque weakness against crosses combined with the aerial threat of Edin Dzeko and Vedad Ibisevic – prompted by Roma schemer Miralem Pjanic – who scored eight headers between them in qualifying, should prepare them for tougher tests head.
波黑隊的橫傳球仿佛吸血鬼附身極具神秘和威脅。有了羅馬隊中場大將皮亞尼克（Miralem Pjanic）的精妙傳球，兩位空中作業的前鋒哲科（Edin Dzeko）和伊比舍維奇（Vedad Ibisevic）在預選賽階段頭球攻入8球，這將對阿根廷的防線帶來嚴峻的挑戰。
And more importantly, both teams’ attacking approach – what other choice do they have? – should make for an open game, not least because Bosnia, with more winnable games against Iran and Nigeria to come, have little to lose from this one and should be fired up ahead of their World Cup debuts.
更重要的是，兩支球隊都是崇尚進攻的球隊（難道他們還有其他踢法嗎？）。本場比賽會是一場開放式的比賽，尤其是對波黑隊而言。波黑隊接下來會在小組賽中與伊朗和尼日利亞交鋒，這兩場比賽的取勝幾率更大，所以說波黑隊本場比賽沒有什么可輸的，他們將會在他們的世界杯首秀中全力以赴。
What the local media say
當地媒體的聲音
‘In Messi we trust’ this week, while Bosnian daily Dnevni Avaz reported that a Brazilian journalist gave coach Pape Susic a lucky necklace ahead of the team’s World Cup debut. Which charm will come out on top?
本周阿根廷媒體表示：“我們信仰梅西”，而波黑日報記者阿瓦斯（Dnevni Avaz）報道稱在世界杯首秀前，一位巴西記者贈送給主教練蘇西奇（Pape Susic）一條象征幸運的項鏈。梅西的魅力和項鏈的魅力，究竟哪個會占上風呢？
Key battle: Martin Demichelis vs Edin Dzeko
關鍵對位：德米凱利斯VS哲科
Despite an unconvincing season withManchesterCity– although it did improve – Demichelis’s knowledge of his club-mate could be crucial givenArgentina’s weakness at defending crosses. If the rangy Dzeko and strike partner Ibisevic can be starved of aerial balls to attack,Argentinashould have too much forBosnia’s equally shaky rearguard.
盡管有所進步，但德米凱利斯在曼城本賽季的表現沒有多大說服力。不過，德米凱利斯對于其曼城隊友哲科的了解對于阿根廷薄弱的后防線而言是十分重要的。如果又高又瘦的哲科和其鋒線搭檔伊比舍維奇得不到高空球支援的話，阿根廷的進攻將會重創波黑隊同樣薄弱的后防線。
